INTRODUCTION
SC 110 is a cosmetic grade prepreg that utilises a high clarity, versatile, hot-melt epoxy resin formulation.
The unique formulation ensures that no white-wash or spots are evident in the cured resin. It is ideal for manufacturing high visual
quality components using autoclave and press moulding. It can be cured at temperatures as low as 80°C (175°F), or it can be used
for faster moulding of components at 120°C (250°F). An even faster
cure of 20 minutes at 150°C (300°F) can also be achieved using the
appropriate press moulding technology.
This is achieved whilst
maintaining a good out-life of up to 3 weeks at 21°C (70°F). SC 110 is a
toughened system, and offers excellent mechanical properties on a wide
variety of reinforcing fabrics and fibres.
During the development of SC 110, extensive beta testing has been
conducted to manufacture the most challenging cosmetic components in
order to demonstrate the robustness of the unique resin formulation.
Tight curvature, resin rich seams and numerous components have been
produced through autoclave and press moulding processes without any
sign of white wash or spots.
Gurit’s SC 110 is suitable for automotive, marine and any markets
where a high clarity finish is required.
